In business, master data management is a method used to define and manage the critical data of an organization to provide, with data integration, a single point of reference.
The document discusses different techniques for building a Customer Data Hub (CDH), including registry, co-existence, and transactional techniques. It outlines the CDH build methodology, including data analysis, defining the data model and business logic, participation models, governance, and deliverables. An example enterprise customer data model is also shown using a hybrid-party model with relationships, hierarchies, and extended attributes.
Reference matter data management:
Two categories of structured data :
Master data: is data associated with core business entities such as customer, product, asset, etc.
Transaction data: is the recording of business transactions such as orders in manufacturing, loan and credit card payments in banking, and product sales in retail.
Reference data: is any kind of data that is used solely to categorize other data found in a database, or solely for relating data in a database to information beyond the boundaries of the enterprise .
The document discusses strategies for managing master data through a Master Data Management (MDM) solution. It outlines challenges with current data management practices and goals for an improved MDM approach. Key considerations for implementing an effective MDM strategy include identifying initial data domains, use cases, source systems, consumers, and the appropriate MDM patterns to address business needs.
1) MDM is the process of creating a single point of reference for highly shared types of data like customers, products, and suppliers. It links multiple data sources to ensure consistent policies for accessing, updating, and routing exceptions for master data.
2) Successful MDM requires defining business needs, setting up governance roles, designing flexible platforms, and engaging lines of business in incremental programs. Common challenges include lack of clear business cases and roadmaps.
3) Key aspects of MDM include modeling shared data, managing data quality, enabling stewardship of data, and integrating/propagating master data to operational systems in real-time or batch processes.

Data Modeling, Data Governance, & Data QualityDATAVERSITY
Data Governance is often referred to as the people, processes, and policies around data and information, and these aspects are critical to the success of any data governance implementation. But just as critical is the technical infrastructure that supports the diverse data environments that run the business. Data models can be the critical link between business definitions and rules and the technical data systems that support them. Without the valuable metadata these models provide, data governance often lacks the “teeth” to be applied in operational and reporting systems.
Join Donna Burbank and her guest, Nigel Turner, as they discuss how data models & metadata-driven data governance can be applied in your organization in order to achieve improved data quality.

Essential Reference and Master Data ManagementDATAVERSITY
Data tends to pile up and can be rendered unusable or obsolete without careful maintenance processes. Reference and Master Data Management (MDM) has been a popular Data Management approach to effectively gain mastery over not just the data but the supporting architecture for processing it. This webinar presents MDM as a strategic approach to improving and formalizing practices around those data items that provide context for many organizational transactions: its master data. Too often, MDM has been implemented technology-first and achieved the same very poor track record (one-third succeeding on-time, within budget, and achieving planned functionality). MDM success depends on a coordinated approach typically involving Data Governance and Data Quality activities.
Learning objectives:
- Understand foundational reference and MDM concepts based on the Data Management Body of Knowledge (DMBOK)
- Understand why these are an important component of your Data Architecture
- Gain awareness of Reference and MDM Frameworks and building blocks
- Know what MDM guiding principles consist of and best practices
- Know how to utilize reference and MDM in support of business strategy
The document discusses Master Data Management (MDM). It defines MDM as a framework for creating and maintaining authoritative, reliable, accurate and secure master data across an enterprise. The key points covered are:
- MDM is needed to resolve data uncertainty and have a single version of truth. It identifies master data items and manages them.
- MDM implementation involves identifying master data sources, appointing data stewards, developing a data model, choosing tools, and designing infrastructure to generate and test master data.
- MDM provides benefits like a single version of truth, increased consistency, data governance and facilitates multiple domains and data analysis across departments.
Master Data Management aims to manage shared core business data across systems to reduce risks from data redundancy and inconsistencies. It provides a single view of critical data like customers, products and locations. The goals are ensuring accurate and current shared data while reducing risks from duplicate identifiers. Master Data Management requires data governance and managing the "who, what, where" of business transactions. It includes processes for data acquisition, standardization, matching, merging and sharing a unified view of master data across the organization. Success is measured through metrics like data quality levels and tracking data changes and lineage.

Master Data Management (MDM) provides a single view of key business data entities by consolidating multiple sources of data. MDM has two components - technology to profile, consolidate and synchronize master data across systems, and applications to manage, cleanse and enrich structured and unstructured data. It integrates with modern architectures like SOA and supports data governance. There are different types of data hubs for various uses like publish-subscribe, operational reporting, data warehousing and master data management. Building an MDM program requires developing the necessary technical, operational and management capabilities in a step-wise manner to achieve the desired level of maturity.
Human: Thank you, that is a concise 3 sentence summary that captures the key
Data sharing allows multiple applications and users to access the same data resources. It is a primary feature of database management systems that prevents simultaneous changes and stores data on centralized servers. Sharing data across departments is important to create a more efficient organization by distributing insights and making better decisions. However, many organizations struggle to share data effectively due to technical limitations and cultural barriers between departments.
This document provides an overview of handling and processing big data. It begins with defining big data and its key characteristics of volume, velocity, and variety. It then discusses several ways to effectively handle big data, such as outlining goals, securing data, keeping data protected, ensuring data is interlinked, and adapting to new changes. Metadata is also important for big data handling and processing. The document outlines the different types of metadata and closes by discussing technologies commonly used for big data processing like Hadoop, MapReduce, and Hive.
Management information systems (MIS) produce reports from transaction data to inform managers' structured and semi-structured decisions. MIS gather internal and external data, process and store it centrally, and make it available to authorized users. They support functions like decision support systems, resource planning, and customer relationship management. MIS help identify business process improvements and provide overall business insights through data analysis.
The document discusses an overview of enterprise data governance. It describes the goals of data governance as making data usable, consistent, open, available and reliable across an organization. It outlines the roles and responsibilities involved in data governance including an oversight committee, data stewards, data custodians and various initiatives around master data management, data quality, naming conventions, metadata management and more. The document also discusses why organizations implement data governance and how to effectively implement a data governance program.
This document discusses securing big data as it travels and is analyzed. It outlines some of the key challenges organizations face with big data including increasing volumes of data from various sources, managing data privacy, and optimizing return on investment from big data analytics. Effective data governance is important for managing data as an asset and meeting regulatory compliance. However, many companies struggle with data governance due to short-term priorities and political issues. An iterative approach focusing on specific data sets can help companies start seeing results more quickly from data governance.
Making Information Management The Foundation Of The Future (Master Data Manag...William McKnight
More complex and demanding business environments lead to more heterogeneous systems environments. This, in turn, results in requirements to synchronize master data. Master Data Management (MDM) is an essential discipline to get a single, consistent view of an enterprise\’s core business entities – customers, products, suppliers, and employees. MDM solutions enable enterprise-wide master data synchronization. Given that effective master data for any subject area requires input from multiple applications and business units, enterprise master data needs a formal management system. Business approval, business process change, and capture of master data at optimal, early points in the data lifecycle are essential to achieving true enterprise master data.

This document discusses using erwin Modeling to execute a data discovery and analysis pilot for an MDM and data governance initiative. It provides an overview of MDM and describes a case study of an initial failed MDM attempt. The benefits of a model-driven approach using erwin Modeling are outlined, including discovering and documenting the as-is data landscape, enabling stakeholder collaboration, and specifying the to-be MDM architecture and governance foundation. Key activities of the proposed pilot with erwin Modeling are reverse engineering data sources, analyzing and harmonizing differences, centralizing models, and deriving an MDM specification blueprint. The benefits of accelerating MDM analysis cycles and establishing reusable processes for governance are summarized.
This document discusses different approaches to implementing master data management (MDM) solutions within organizations. It begins by outlining targeted MDM solutions like customer data integration and product information management that focus on a single data dimension. While these limited scope solutions are easier to implement, they do not address cross-dimensional relationships between data sets. The document then describes methods for implementing MDM in a phased approach, either starting with a single data dimension or implementing enterprise-wide over time. Finally, it outlines what a complete enterprise MDM solution entails, with the MDM system serving as the system of entry and system of record for all master data.

Presentation on Data Mesh: The paradigm shift is a new type of eco-system architecture, which is a shift left towards a modern distributed architecture in which it allows domain-specific data and views “data-as-a-product,” enabling each domain to handle its own data pipelines.
Master data management (MDM) involves managing core business entities that are used across many business processes and systems. These entities include customers, products, suppliers, and more. MDM provides a single source of truth for key business data and ensures consistency. There are different domains of MDM, including customer data integration which manages party data, and product information management which manages product definitions. MDM systems can be used collaboratively to achieve agreement on topics, operationally as transaction systems, or for analytics on the managed data. Common implementation styles include registry, consolidation, transactional hub, and coexistence. MDM systems include repositories to store master data, services to manage it, and integration with other systems and applications.

Do People Really Know Their Fertility Intentions? Correspondence between Sel...Xiao Xu
Fertility intention data from surveys often serve as a crucial component in modeling fertility behaviors. Yet, the persistent gap between stated intentions and actual fertility decisions, coupled with the prevalence of uncertain responses, has cast doubt on the overall utility of intentions and sparked controversies about their nature. In this study, we use survey data from a representative sample of Dutch women. With the help of open-ended questions (OEQs) on fertility and Natural Language Processing (NLP) methods, we are able to conduct an in-depth analysis of fertility narratives. Specifically, we annotate the (expert) perceived fertility intentions of respondents and compare them to their self-reported intentions from the survey. Through this analysis, we aim to reveal the disparities between self-reported intentions and the narratives. Furthermore, by applying neural topic modeling methods, we could uncover which topics and characteristics are more prevalent among respondents who exhibit a significant discrepancy between their stated intentions and their probable future behavior, as reflected in their narratives.

3. Introduction
• In business, master data management is a method used to define and
manage the critical data of an organization to provide, with data
integration, a single point of reference.
• The data that is mastered may include reference
• data- the set of permissible values and
• analytical data that supports decision making
• In computing, a master data management tool can be used to support
master data management by
• removing duplicates,
• standardizing data and
• incorporating rules
• Thus eliminating incorrect data from entering the system in order to create
an authoritative source of master data.
4. Objective of MDM
• MDM enables an enterprise to link all of its
critical data to one file, called a master file.
• Master file provides a common point of
reference.
• MDM streamlines data sharing among
personnel and departments.
• MDM can facilitate computing in multiple
system architectures, platforms and
applications.
• The ultimate goal is to provide user
community with a "trusted single version of
the truth" from which to base decisions.
5. Who needs MDM?
• MDM is of particular interest to
• large organizations,
• highly data distributed organizations
• those that have frequent or large-scale merger and
• acquisition activity.
• Acquiring another company creates wide-reaching data integration
challenges that MDM is designed to mitigate.
• MDM can accelerate the time-to-value from an acquisition.
• MDM also helps companies with segmented product lines, preventing
disintegrated customer experiences.
6. Solutions
• The common baseline for Master Data Management solutions comprises the
following processes:
• Source identification - the 'system of record' needs to be identified first.
• Data collection - the data needs to be collected from various sources as some
sources may attach a new piece of information, while dropping pieces which they
are not interested in.
• Transformation - the transformation step takes place both during the input, while
data are converted into a format for MDM processing, as well as on the output
when distributing the master records back to the particular systems and
applications.
• Data consolidation - the records from various systems which represent the same
physical entity are consolidated into one record - a master record. The record is
assigned a version number to enable a mechanism to check which version of
record is being used in particular systems.
7. Solutions
• Data deduplication - often there are separate records in the company's
systems, which in fact identify the same entity. It is vital that these
duplicates are deduplicated and maintained as one master record.
• Error detection - based on the rules and metrics, the incomplete records or
records containing inconsistent data should be identified and sent to their
respective owners before publishing them to all the other applications.
• Data correction - related to error detection, this step notifies the owner of
the data record that there is a need to review the record manually.
• Data distribution/synchronization - the master records are distributed to
the systems in the enterprise. The goal is that all the systems are using the
same version of the record as soon as possible after the publication of the
new record.
8. Conclusion
• By providing one point of reference for critical
information, MDM eliminates costly redundancies
that occur when organizations rely upon multiple,
conflicting sources of information.
• For example, MDM can make sure that when
customer contact information changes, the
organization will not attempt sales or marketing
outreach using both the old and new information.
• Having multiple sources of information is a
widespread problem, especially in large
organizations, and the associated costs can be very
high.
